Game Industry sustained growth for some time, but the lifespan of a game is shortening. Various efforts to improve the quality of services for the game players which play a role in extending the lifespan of games. When a game is serviced, the server of the game starts to store log informations, and the stored data became important measures to predict game user's activities. As the game's data gathers, it becomes highly useful big data. By analyzing the data of the game stored in this way, a game service issue analysis procedure is proposed to improve the quality of the game service and to proceed with a better service, and based on the analysis in this way, it was applied to the balance test process and verified through expert to the balance test process. If the log analysis process is applied through this paper, it will be a basic data that can improve the quality of game services.

We aim to investigate whether the activities in the 2015 revised elementary English textbooks are reflected in terms of Multiple Intelligences. Specifically, we analyze three types of activities including project, game, and cultural activities in three types of the 5^th grade English textbooks. Additionally, we compare the differences in the Multiple Intelligences according to three different publishers. The data includes three different sorts of fifth-grade English textbook activities. We found that verbal-linguistic intelligence, interpersonal intelligence, and visual-spatial intelligence are heavily involved in project activities. Verbal-linguistic intelligence, interpersonal intelligence, visual-spatial intelligence, and kinesthetic intelligence are all utilized in game activities. Lastly, cultural activities demonstrate verbal-linguistic and visual-spatial intelligence. In consideration of the diversity of students, we suggest that English textbooks need to consider diverse and well balanced approach to incorporating Multiple Intelligences in order to make the textbooks to meet the needs of the diversity of learners.

Recently, there is an increasing interest in game based learning as a teaching method for digital native learners. This study set kinect game contributes to engaged learning as the competition and cooperation play (achievement goals, interaction), the digital game play (multisensory stimulation, fantasy and curiosity, chance, accurate feedback, control), and the body movement play (embodied cognition, presence). After performing classes using the motion recognition game developed for the elementary school history class, this study conducted semi structured interviews based on engaged learning elements of kinect game based learning for students who were successfully participating in learning. In the result, each element appeared to a successful learner. Based on these results, this study hopes to assist researchers as a basic evidence to introduce kinect game-based learning for engaged learning.

Despite people's expectation, COVID-19 has turned out to be a burden people have to carry for a while. The age of "Untact" has come. While many outdoor activites have been restricted, it is crucial to find other ways to maintain physical/mental health ideally indoors. As a mediative gesture, people are now taking notice of 'Console games', through which they can party, travel, and exercise in virtual reality even harder than in real life. In thesis, we will examine Nintendo Switch Consoles in relation to direction Korean game industry has to take to maintain people's physical/mental health.

The purpose of this study is to statistically analyze the correlation between unplugged activities using SW educational board games and computational thinking ability of elementary school students, and then find a method of SW education through the results. The study was conducted with 40 students in the 5th grade at an Elementary School in Incheon. Students participated at unplugged activities using a board game for SW education with 12 hours of teacher guidance and 10 hours of free activities. After that, a post-test was conducted to analyze the degree of improvement in computational thinking ability. As the results, it was confirmed that the comprehensive computational thinking ability was improved, and that the four areas of the sub-domains of computational thinking ability were improved to a significant level. These results suggest that providing a basic SW education experience by utilizing a board game for SW education helps to improve students' computational thinking ability.

The study conducted a meta analysis to identify the effects of physical activity programs for the elderly with disabilities. The 14 out of 177 studies, fulfilled the process and requirement, were selected for the Hedges'g, funnel plot, forest plot, Egger's regression test, trim-and-fill, fail-safe N. There were three conclusions based on the results. First, the physical activity was effective for the elderly with disabilities and showed good effects on the psychomotor, cognitive, and affective domains. Second, the physical activity programs of fundamental exercise skill, game and sport, and fitness exercise showed positive effects on the psychomotor, cognitive, and affective domains in the elderly with disabilities. Third, the fundamental exercise skill for the psychomotor domain, the game and sport for the cognitive domain, and the fitness exercise for the affective domain were the most effective for the elderly with disabilities.

This study aims to propose instituting the serious games of language-based cognitive enhancement for the BIF children. The program consists of 4 cognitive areas (perception, attention, working memory, knowledge inference) in 4 language dimensions (phoneme, word, sentence, discourse). 16 games of 4 areas/2 dimensions with 3 difficulty levels were implemented in a mobile station and pilot-tested to children including BIFs. The results from the pilot tests supported for the validity and effectiveness of our games: Children's game performance correlated with their IQ scores (overall and sub-areas) revealing significant differences between the groups. The stroop scores in pre-and-post training hinted the increase of children's cognitive control.

Since the launch of Pokémon GO in 2016, the game has been loved for many users. Although the number of Pokémon GO users has declined, lots of users still enjoy the location-based augmented reality game. From the perspective of game properties and Use & Gratifications theory, this paper investigated the antecedents of continuance intention of Pokémon GO. A total of 258 responses from Pokémon Go users was collected by an online survey. The result of regression analysis showed that attitude toward game characters, attitude toward random game elements, social interaction, competition, and physical activity increased continuance intention. Perceived cost, however, decreased continuance intention. Implications for researchers and practitioners were discussed.

This paper introduces the secondary cultural productions of game fandom that have been underestimated. The participatory cultural activities of game users are broadly expanding owing to machinima technology based on game engine. It allows gamers to make the three dimensional digital animations simple and easy way. This paper studies that how simple game consumers change their role as producers through machinima. This study is focused on the relationship between polysemy of participatory Machinima and former fandom's the secondary culture studies using ethnographic research method. It is to clarify relationship between the game users' psychological motivation for culture practice and the machinimas. We verify practically the machinima's effects on fandom culture through analysing viewers' reaction using replies on the machinimas and then find out machinima is a very important tool for expanding the game culture realm as the main body.
